Pollinators at September Park P.A.L.S.
Darke County Park District invites children in kindergarten through 2nd
grade to join them on September 17th from 10am to noon to explore
pollinators during Park P.A.L.S! Butterflies, bees, and more! Students
will discover the importance of pollinators while they hike the trails
and get up close and with these winged wonders. Participants will also
do a cool craft, so kids are encouraged to bring their creativity,
sense of adventure, and a friend!
Park P.A.L.S. is a series of monthly programs designed for students of
this age group who are interested in nature. P.A.L.S. stands for
Practicing And Learning Stewardship, and its mission is to develop
future earth stewards through meaningful educational opportunities and
hands-on experiences in the natural world. A fee of $3 is charged for
the program, and preregistration is required. For any questions about
the Park P.A.L.S. program or any other Park District programs or to
register for the September class, please call the Nature Center at
(937) 548-0165.
